I have a complete Hindi book that exists only as scanned pages. I need every page cleanly retyped in Unicode-compliant Hindi, proof-read for accuracy, and delivered as a press-ready PDF. Only light formatting is required—just make sure each chapter and sub-section heading stands out in a bold, slightly larger font than the body text. Beyond those headings, regular paragraphs should remain plain, no intricate layouts or styles. Accuracy is paramount: I want the final text to match the original book word for word, including punctuation and diacritics. Please double-check for common OCR or typing slip-ups such as matra placement and conjunct consonants. When you finish, share both the final PDF and the working source file (Word or similar) so I can archive an editable copy.

I have everything a story needs—manuscript, 15 finished illustrations (300 DPI), front cover, and the key phrases for a powerful, conflict-driven blurb. Now I need a skilled book designer to pull it all together into a polished, print-ready children’s picture book. Project details • Format a 28-page interior for ages 3-7 in 8.5 x 11 trim, with full bleed and safe margins so no text or art hugs the edges. • Place text below each illustration; use a simple, clean, large-point font that early readers can follow with ease. • Ensure consistent styling—identical text blocks, matching margins, and a unified look on every spread, cover to back. • Supply final files (PDF/X-1a for print + review PDF) ready for KDP or IngramSpark, including separate cove...

My 250-page book is already laid out in Adobe Illustrator; it now needs a final professional polish before uploading to Kindle Direct Publishing. Your primary focus will be publishing preparation, but there are two other small tasks that fold naturally into the workflow: • Layout adjustments – a handful of pages need images and texts re-alignment, so element positioning is balanced on page and tidied so everything sits consistently across the full document. • Text fixes – I will supply a marked-up list of wording corrections; simply drop those into the existing Illustrator artboards. No proofreading required. Once those tweaks are in place, I need the entire file packaged and converted to a print-ready PDF that meets KDP’s bleed, trim-size, and image-res...

I’m looking for someone experienced in novel typesetting, interior formatting, and interior layout for my manuscript. Budget: ₹1,000 maximum. I cannot go beyond this. The manuscript is approximately 67,500 words, and I will provide the source file in Docs/Word format. I need the final files in three formats: • Editable DOC/DOCX • Print-ready PDF for paperback printing • Reflowable EPUB for e-book The interior design doesn’t need to be overly elaborate. I want professional, and appropriate for a crime/psychological thriller. Most importantly, I need someone who has prior experience formatting novels and preparing print-ready files. This PDF will go directly to the printer, so things like fonts, line spacing, margins, page size, gutter, header footer chapter format...

Key points you should know • Source: clear photos / scans of the handwritten pages will be supplied. • Output: a press-ready PDF.

Margins and basic paragraph styles (chapter titles, sub-heads, body...

I’m putting together a warm, engaging picture book for children aged 3-5 that celebrates the joy of friendship. I already know the heart of the story—I want little readers to finish the last page feeling excited about making friends and helping one another—so what I need now is a writer who can spin that message into a simple, memorable narrative of roughly 400-600 words. The tone should be playful and rhythmic enough to read aloud, with clear page breaks that invite bright, cartoonish artwork. Along with the manuscript, please include short illustration notes so an artist knows exactly what is happening in each scene (think colour palettes, facial expressions, and any fun background details that reinforce the story). If you can also provide the actual cartoon-style ill...

I have a finished board-book manuscript that simply runs too long for tiny attention spans. It’s aimed at toddlers roughly 2 – 4 years old and I want every page to feel playful and entertaining while keeping a gentle, consistent rhyme. What I need from you is a thoughtful edit that cuts the excess words yet preserves the story arc, rhythm and sense of fun.
